January 24, 2020 GoFundMe Fundraiser

Oftentimes, the Mules receive requests on how Three Mules Nation followers can help. The Mules have created Little Girl & Little Ethel Impoundment FeesGoFundMeto help pay for the cost to release the mules from San Luis Obispo County Animal Shelter after our wrongful arrest in Paso Robles (details here). The shelter fee was $266. The intent was to stop the GoFundMe when we reached the goal. $500 was raised within minutes of posting and was unable to close fundraiser quick enough. The goal was achieved and fundraising closed.

Posted are the receipts for the supplies purchased with the excess funds. The Mules say thank you to all those who have supported our endless journey throughout the years of one human being walking with his/her animal companions in one of all four directions, how we choose, when we choose – the basic freedom we must all protect as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, the supreme Law of the Land. ~The Mules
